>tfw reading poetry all the time slowed your reading speed to the point of being frustrated at prose now
Poetry is the superior literary form anyway, I wouldn't sweat it too much.
If you are frustrated then you're a pleb. I enjoy good prose much more after getting into poetry.
better to read at a comfortable and thoughtful pace than to simply scan the text...

God, I feel you too much. Prose is just so annoying at this point. I find myself skimming at that's it.
Plus, I'm marginally dyslexic, so that makes it harder.
Eh, sometimes when I switch from reading poetry to prose then it takes a while to get used to it because I'm trying to find the meter and all that.

Prose is for plebs anyway.

I didn't use the British spelling of 'meter', so try and draw a conclusion from that.
